emptiness-wickedness
| Root | און (ʾ-w-n) |
| Core Meanings | emptiness, nothingness, vanity, trouble, wickedness, harmful exertion |
| Semantic Range | vanity, nothingness, futility, trouble, sorrow, mischief, injustice, wickedness, idolatry (as empty worship) |
| Conceptual Significance | אָוֶן highlights the biblical understanding that wickedness is not merely wrongdoing but a hollow, destructive emptiness opposed to YHWH’s life-giving order. It often characterizes idolatry and injustice as futile and morally void, exposing their ultimate nothingness before the covenantal God. |
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcfsa). No pronominal suffix; denotes an abstract quality or condition. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אָוֶן is a feminine singular absolute form denoting a state or quality. Its root conveys the idea of emptiness or futile exertion that results in trouble or moral corruption. "Emptiness-wickedness" preserves both the sense of moral evil and the underlying concept of hollow, destructive vanity inherent in the root. |
